JUNE:

MOLLY GETS NEW FENCED ENCLOSURE!

Molly is a three year old Chocolate Lab/Golden Retriever mix. Chainfree Bristol just completed another fenced enclosure... this one for Molly!

Molly is the 11th dog that Chainfree Bristol has freed from life on a tether.  In a two day project that ended on June 2nd in Bristol, Tennessee, Chainfree  Bristol Volunteers installed a large fenced enclosure that gives this active young dog plenty of room to run... which she did immediately upon being released.

 Thanks to Pete, Eden, Anita, Les and Liza who endured late day mosquitoes but where rewarded by Molly's reaction to her new found freedom! Special thanks to Debbie and Sharon for their financial support this month.

AUGUST

Sugar and Harley Get 

NEW FENCED ENCLOSURE!

Sugar is a sweet     6-8 year old Terrier mix.  This month Chainfree Bristol built a new, roomy  fenced enclosure for Sugar and Harley. Two year old, Hound/Retriever Harley, was an escape artist, regularly breaking free from his chain.

Sugar and Harley are the 14th and 15th dogs that the volunteers of Chainfree Bristol has freed from life on a perpetual tether.  In a two day project that ended on August 14th, Chainfree Bristol volunteers installed a large fenced enclosure that gives Sugar and Harley plenty of freedom! Thanks to Liza, Les, Eden, Pete, Jenni and Anita from Sugar and Harley!
